    I'm a student in at NUIG at the moment, but the problem is I'm really starting to hate my course. It's a three year course but I'm repeating second year because of mental health problems I had last year. My mental health may be a contributing factor when it comes to my dislike of the my current course.

    What options, if any, do I have?

    Well, you have the time now to request an application form from the CAO.

    I'd recommend going to the head of your faculty and to the careers office to seek advice before doing anything else.

    Depending on how closely related the course you decide to switch to is to your current course, you may, in exceptional circumstances, be allowed to start in the second year of your new course. That is unlikely, and not necessarily a good idea.
